Founding Support Engineer

Join us in our mission to empower developers worldwide

Mintlify's platform reaches 20m+ developers every year and power the documentation of 3500+ companies including Anthropic, Pinecone, Zapier, to over 20% of the last YC batch.

About the role

Mintlify is looking for dedicated, experienced, and passionate individuals to help solve some of the most difficult problems faced by our customers. As a founding support engineer, you will be interacting directly with our customers through support tickets and Slack messages, troubleshooting complex issues to define the undefined, and setting a positive precedent for the rest of the team to follow.

Your work will bring us toward industry-leading response times and service levels, while building our internal customer feedback operations in an increasingly intricate space. You will play an integral role in building knowledge within the team and be part of strategic initiatives for organizational and process improvements. You will be crucial to the success of building a innovative, disruptive, and high-scale product.

If you thrive in environments that value impact, collaboration, and fast-paced problem-solving, you might be the perfect fit for our team

What you need to succeed

• Located in (or will relocate to) San Francisco and excited about working in-person
• Strong communication skills, both written and verbal
• An interest in tinkering with the product
• Familiarity with MDX, Git, and GitHub

In This Role, You Will

• Work directly with customers, solving their most complex problems and providing ownership and education on the use of our platforms.
• Be among the foremost experts on everything related to Mintlify products. You are the last line of defense before our core Product and Engineering teams.
• Partner with engineering and customer teams to resolve issues, engaging with senior leaders and teams internally or with customers as needed.
• Take learnings from resolving customer issues and figure out how to operationalize those solutions at scale, with Engineering, with our Go-To-Market team, etc.

Our values

We’re a small team with big dreams - and the culture we create is just as important to us as the product we’re building.

📈 Growth oriented

Slope y intercept. We invest in people and growth as the company grows.

💚 Humility

Everyone has a lot to give and a lot to learn. Egos are not allowed.

🌟 Customer focused

We love our customers. We make decisions by focusing relentlessly on them - and accept if this means changing our ideas. Customer success is our success.

💡 Intellectual honesty

We believe in creating an environment where the best ideas win and acknowledging when we are wrong.

👾 Hack to success

We move fast and take big swings. We always aim for a solution that addresses 80% of the problem in 20% of the time. We make educated bets, launch MVPs, and iterate.

🔥 Having fun

Be unapologetically you! We love our game-nights, ping pong tournaments, bufo emojis, and cow jokes (the CEO knows over 100 of them and TechCrunch made fun of him for it).
